World Records

Some of the most-seen boards in Minesweeper are the boards used to set a world record (WR). These boards go through the history of world records for fastest time, from the oldest ones accepted by minesweeper.info to the current records. I strongly recommend going to that site for more information about records as well as the community itself.

People have had a 1 on Beginner for a long time - one-click or two-click boards are quite common. So, starting with Intermediate, here are all the records where I could find a picture or video of the board. Note that the first two boards are identical, because they were both done with the Dreamboard!
